phone conversation

this is what i overheard tonight while nani was talking with her friend on the phone (she loves putting the phone on speaker, which i usually try to discourage her from doing because it's harder for the other person to hear. this time i am glad she didn't listen to me because this cracked me up!):

a: "nani, do you want me to spit in the phone and see if you get wet?"

nani: "what?"

a: "i'm going to spit on the phone and see if it comes out your phone! (spitting noises) do you feel anything?"

nani: "no!"

a (with disappointment in her voice): "awww, it didn't work!"

nani: "all you're doing is getting the phone dirty!"

a (big burping sound): "did you hear that? i burped in the phone!"

more burping noises

a: "i did 3 burps already! (some more sounds) i have four burps now! do you wanna hear a fart?"

nani: "what?!"

a: "i'm going to fart in the phone! (farting noise followed by a giggle) that was fake!"

my favorite was the spitting in the phone part! who would have thought to try something like that? i just wonder if she really did spit on her phone?! i feel sorry for the next person who used it after her!

phone conversations, just one more thing to add to the list of things that i do not look forward to in 10 years when all three of our daughters will be teenagers! do you think nani will still want to have it on speaker? uh, i think not!

i had better enjoy the phone while i still have access to it!

In ten years the girls will each have a cochlear implant connected to the cellular network, so they will be able to just keep talking to their friends all day and night.

You will constantly flip between wanting desperately to hear both sides of the conversation, and being very glad that you can't.

Hilarious!
I must admit I'm surprised to find out the person on the other line was a girl and not a boy :-)

Happy 100th post!!

i, too, think that sounds way more like a little boy conversation, except that little boys are less likely to HAVE phone conversations with their friends.
very funny. i'm glad she had it on speaker phone!

That's so funny. Don't tell me, could that have been Alexis? :)

Becca said...

That is so funny! I have never heard anything like that. Hee Hee

Elizabeth Dimit said...

Yes, I was wondering. Was that Alexis? I asked her, but she didn't seem to understand what I was talking about. I don't remember Alexis making a call to Nani the other night, but that certainly doesn't mean it didn't happen! :-)

Teresa said...

That is hilarious!! haha!!

What funny little girls! And yeah, I'm pretty sure Nani is not going to have anything to do with speaker phone in 10 years.
